Hi!

We use ISPconfig on two servers and everything works well.

But I can't understand why the Name of an user/email have to be only Chars, Numbers, ., - and _ only.

It would be nice if german umlauts are allowed. (I use the Name-filed to generate correct sender-infos in roundcube)

Is your default linux locale set to a locale which supports german umlauts?

I guess yes. Why?

It's CentOS 4.5 and uses everywhere UTF-8.
I guess this is also the reason why ths isp server status page looks so ugly. (See attachment).
